WOMAN WHO SUED DR. LOWRY. KANSAS CITY’S FAIR LITIGANT REJECTS EVERY OFFER. One Wants to Help Her Invest Her $25,000 Judgment; Another Proposes an Investment in Lithographing. Special to the Post-Dispatch. ‘ KANSAS CITY, Mo., March 2.—Seven proposals of marriage have been made to Miss Martha Smith since she was given judgment for $25,000 against Dr. Howard 8S. Lowry, for breach of promise. All of them arrived by letter at the Coates House yes- terday before Miss Smith left Kansas City for San Francisco. She showed them to a number of women friends who had called to say good-by, ard they all laughed over them together. One letter came from a man in Buffalo, N. Y. He was so certain that Miss Smith would accept his proposal that he had the plans already matured and kindly outlined them to her.

Two men are known to have been killed and six serlously injured, and a number of others hurt, but not dangerously. Six coaches in the long train were ovefr- turned and piled ina mass below the track. The names of the men killed and injured have not yet been learned, nor is the cause of the wreck explained, The Second Missouri ts a militia regiment recruited from Jefferson City, Sedalia, Carthage, Columbia, Joplin, Nevada, Cline. ton, Butler, Pierce City, Lamar, Golden City and Adrian. & ted _ we 9 ie a ~. 7 _ sel Wied ‘o Sal ‘ * amd > . fo. v 2 ¥ * 4 the '% Mm 4 Second Mise > % seas os The fact that one pa¥ticipant in the profit of that piece of legisiation was all but in- dicted by a grand jury is one of the rea- sons that induced the Major comm.ttee to put the Central Traction bill on its pro- gramme.

The investigation along other lines is now on, however. The Central Traction ‘bill was passed in March, 1898, over Mayor Ziegenhein’s veto. The vote in the House of of Delegates was % to 3. Speaker Lloyd, Pauley and Coudrey beime the dissenting members. President Meier, Wiggins, Herton and Ives voted ‘no’ in the Council, where the bill re- celved only the nine votes necessazg io pass it.

Nor will the Mayor | be asked to testify relative to his reasons} for vetoing the bill, uniess other testimony | shall make it advisable to do so. The Central Traction bill is the most no- | torious piece of St. Louis legislation that has come before the notice of the commit- tee; for that reason it will be taken up ahead of the charges of corruption in the Municipal Assembly. “I want you ®& put $10,000 into a litho- graphing business with me here,”’ he said. “I understand it thoroughly and we can make a good thing of it. We would live at Niagara Falls and I would.never want any of your past to be known, as my family would not like it.” ‘“*The idea! exclaimed Miss Smith, as she read this aloud. “As though he might not have a past himself that it would be wise io conceal! Isn't it ridiculous?’ Two of the seven letters were from men in Buffalo. The other Buffalo man was milder and less aggresive. He modestly suggested that “it might be well to meet and become acquainted.’’ He wanted Miss Smith to join with him in the establish- ment of a medical institute at Buffalo. His age was 36, he was comely, though not to say irresistibly handsome, and felt san- guinely certain that Miss Smith would like him, He hoped. so, at least, and would sieep none until he received a definite as- surance from her hand. There was no doubting the good faith of a man in a small Kansas town, who ex- ressed his sympathy for Miss Smith and ‘s confidence in her. He had read the ac- counts of the trial of her breach of prom- ise suit carefully, he said, and saw clearly how she had been deceived and imposed upon. Then the writer, who. wrote-a very long letter with apparent ease entered upon aie philosophical dissertation on treachery, decepfiton, infidelity, the base- ness of turpitude and the nobility of virtue. Besides a heart that was honest and true, this Kansan admitted that he had little to offer Miss Smith. If she con- cluded, after meeting him, that she pre- ferred not to marry, she might accept office work in his office. After reading this letter, Miss Smdth said: ‘“‘This is the only one that I feel cer- tain is in good faith. He evidently means what he says and is interested in me. The poor, foolish man!”’ She sighed. Then she opened several anonymous let- ters, some of them written by people of Kansas City, expressing their bellef in her good intentions, their admiration for the way in which she had been vindicated, and their hope that she would find more of sunshine and felicity in the future than she had found in the past. “Felicity! Indeed! As though I pared any longer whether I lived or died,” said Miss Smith. ‘So few people have any en- joyment amid the sorrows and adversities and disappointments and sufferings of life that, as a plain business proposition, I don't believe it pays. It isn’t worth it.”’ Miss Smith, who was plaintiff in the! most remarkable breach of promise suit ever tried in Jackson County, left: the Union Depot for San Francisco at 10:30 yes- terday morning. She is to accept a position as traveling saleswoman for a dental sup- ply company of that city. Within the next six weeks her lawyers will collect the $25.- 000 judgment against Dr. Lowry, or as much of it as is collectible, and forward it to her. THE QUEEN OF BELGIUM ILL.

In the arrest of seven men, a woman and a boy at 6% 8. Broadway Wednesday night the police think they apprehended one of the cleverest gangs that ever worked in St. Lou's. The arrests were made by Patrolmen White and John Noonan. At the Central District Police Station, where the gang was locked up, they gave their namgs: James | McLaughlin, Harry H. Wade, Fred Goebel. Wiillam Kelley, John Klein, Charles Fish- er, William Murphy, Frank Miiler and Ka- tle Kelley. Charles Fisher is a mere boy. He says he is 14 years old, but he looks younger. The woman says she is the wife of William Kelley and is 23 years old. sien sii For a week the gang has occ ap of the house at § Broadway. A day or two ago Patrolman Noonan one of the men as he was leaving the Standard Theater. The policeman fol- loweg and saw him go to the house, The plac? was kept under surveillance after that. The room was rented about a week ago by the Kelley man and woman, The policemen secreted themselves In a room adjoining the Kelley apartments and for two hours White and Noonan observed ev- erything that transpired. Several times the Fisher boy was sent for beer. The people talked all the while of erilme and criminals. They were partic- ularly joyful over the acquittal of young Jease James. Finally they touched on their own dealings. The Kelley woman had some money which ahe divided among the en. “The woman was seen in the holdorer Thursday morning. She took her inecarcera- tion as coolly as though it were nothing new. She is rather large and hae dig. brown, bold eyes. The police found two bolts of se and a skirt.

The little Fisher boy has the appearance of a finished criminal, despite his tender years. He is well dressed, and wears knee pants. He says his parents live in Chicago where they conduct a grocery at W. Taylor st. He mane in Chicago concert halls and in saloons. He says he came to St. Louis a week ago with William Murphy and never met the Kelley gang until es- day night. He did not know they were suspects until the police broke into the room. He did not sing here because he could not find ‘employment. The pollce think the boy was used for what they term “‘transom climbing.”’ They think they will be able to find evidence against the gang and will make a thorough search of the premises Thursday. Chief Desmond said Thursday, after par- tially looking up the records of the men, that the bunch of arrests were the best made in years. The man who gave his name as Fred Gabel, the chief says, is Sterling David- son. He is also known under the alias of Harley Hall. He has served, according to Desmond, three penitentiary terms, five years at Jefferson City, five years in Min- resota and four years in ‘Milwaukee. He was identified by Detective Tom MeGrath. On April 11 Detective McGrath arrested him and he was given hours. In his pockets there were found two pic- tures of Kate Kelly, the woman arrested with the gang. She was known then, the chief says, as Annie Miller. The man who gave his name as William Kelly is alleged to be William Scully. Scully's brother killed Dink Daly at Seventh and Ohestnut sts. last April. The night Daly was killed the woman then known as Annie Miller was with him. Scully's brother was acquitted on the grounds of self defense. It is now thought the woman is Scully's wife and her asso- clation with Daly may have led to the tragedy. The man who ealid he was John Klein was identified by Detective McGrath aa Frank Lee. detective arrested him Oct. 11, 1897. at the South Side parade on Broadway and Rutger st. He was fined $10 and «given hours. McLaughlin and the others are supposed to be from Chicago. ON A SALARY BASIS. Proposed Amendment of the Law Re- garding the Probate Court.

SUFFERING IN THE CAMP. Railroads Again Blockaded West of Leadville, and One Meal a Day of Potatoes and Water a Luxury. —_—-— Se - —-— LEADVILLE, Colo., March 2.--For six weeks it has snowed almost continuously in this section of the State, and now a blizzard of unusual severity is again block- ading the railroads and threatens another coal famine. At funerals held here to-day it was necessary to have the coffins and mourners on toboggans, dragged by men on enowshoes, and then it was impossible to get to the cemetery. The mining camps of Dillon, Kokomo, Cli- max and Wheeler, which have been cut off from train service for five weeks, are in bad straits. The road dug 12 miles through the snow, which was simply a cut eight feet deep, is again filled in with snow. Many families are living on one meal a day, which consists of bread, po- tatoes and water. Suffering has already begun, while the storm is worse than ever. Hardy miners on toboggans will endeavor to remove women and children to Leadville for safety. The railroads in that locality are covered by frogen snowbanks W feet high in places, and it will be necessary to use dynamite to clear the track. Here 1500 men have been laid off on ac- count of the blockaded roads to the mines. The smeltere have curtailed their forces on account of lack of coke and ore. . FIGHTERS MUST APOLOGIZE. Two Indiana Physicians Insulted the fHouse’s Dignity. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., March 2.—The “prize fighting’’ committee of the House to investigate the fight which occurred before the House a few evenings ago between Drs. Thomas and Rilus Eastman. both prominent physictans of this city, and two of the doorkeepers, reported, entirely exon- erating the doorkeepers. Unless the two hysiclans apologize to the House they will e fined or imprisoned or both, at the dis- cretion of the House. The Hammond harbor bill was killed in the Senate on a motion to indefinitely post* pone further consideration. The vo@e by which the Knott bill to drain the Kankakee Valley was killed was reconsidered and the bill engrossed. Two of the bilis to amend the Fort Wayne charter were killed in th House. The bills to reorganize the Indiana National Guard and to divide the State into regimental districts for the new guard were killed in the House. The House passed bills to create a State Rallroad Commission, to provide for a uni- form system of county accounts, to give farmers constabulatory powers where per- sons trespass on their grounds in hunting, and one providing that companies entering combinations to destroy competition may be rosecuted on information. This last is the urkhardt anti-trust bill. ————— eee Ava Guarding Against Smallpox. AVA, IlL, March 2.—This town has uar- antined Saltpox.

Becker till now stoutly maintained his innocence, declaring that he and his first wife had quarreled and agreed to sep- arate; that he had taken her to the Good- rich Docks and put her on a boat bound for Milwaukee, where she expected to live with her sister. The Milwaukee story was proved to be faise. About the same time blood stains were found in the barn in the rear ef the Becker ‘home. In spite of these discoy- eries, Becker stuck to his story. Yesterday he was made to go with offi- cers tO every point he claimed to have Visited in his purchase of rings and a silk dress for his new wife, and to the Good- rich Docks, where he claimed to have seen Mrs. Becker the first go away to Milwaukee with a4 man known to him as Mike. When taken back to the station, Becker was in a bad frame of mind. Captain Lavin caught him in a number of glaring Misstatements, and finally he tossed his head deflantly and declared that he had killed his wife. “I killed her Jan. 27,"" said Becker. ‘‘We were downtown together that day. In the afternoon we etrolled over to the Randolph street viaduct. There we began quarreling. My wife accused me of not being true to her, and I, in turn, accused her of not loy- ing me. TI -became very angry and threw her into the river near one of the Illinois Central slips. Then I went back to my home.’’ The police maintain that the blood stains found in the barn are human. Becker gays that they came from a calf he Killed there recently. Then again, Becker announced to the Sutterlein family shortly before ll o'clock the morning of Jan, 27 that his housekeeper (his wife) had gone to Mil- waukee and that he was anxious to hasten his marriage to (Miss Eda, while in his con- fession he says that he killed his wife late in the afternoon of the same ef There are several other contradictions of less im- portance.

SHIPS WOULD NOT TAKE THEM. Some of the Soldiers of Fortune Re- turn Home, Others Take $8 and do the Micawber Act. NEW ORLEANS, La.,. March 2.—The filibustering expedition organized in Kan- sas City to go to Central America is a “fizzle.” Two-thirds of the men have gone back to the city in which they were Tfe- cruited, and the other third have accepted $8 each and called “it all square.’’ The Collector of the Port here was ap- prised officially of the coming of the 112 and was prepared to stop the party if it attempted to violate the neutrality laws of the nation, but the sudden failure of the scheme was directly due to the New Orleans representative of the Honduran Government. As soon as the party disem- barked from the Illinois Central train yes- terday he hastened to the office of the Macheca line of steamships, which com- any had contracted to land the men at 2orto Barrios, and protested against al- lowing the adventurers to take passage on any of the company’s boats. Manager \Macheca heeded the protest and informed the Consul that he would not permit the Missourians to sail on any of his ships. At first none of the officers who had been at the head of the party appeared, but finally a young fellow named Fitzgerald mounted a box and frankly told the men that the expedition was a failure. He said that the steamship company had refused to take the party to Honduras and that there was no other way of getting there. He offered the men return tickets to Kansas City, the point of recruiting, or $8 apiece in cash. He said that the men who wanted the money would be given §& cents to get a bed and breakfast with, and that they would receive the balance of the money, $7.50, in the morning. The men, reckless fellows that they are, took the announcement ood naturedly, oheering young Fitzgerald. 80 the cele- brated expedition ended. y 7 Whitten, the Kansas City lawyer who was at the head of the party when it started southward, rode in the Pullman as far as Memphis and there left the train with the surgeon and two or three friends, whoge names could not be learned. Some of the men say that it was understood the expedition was partially financed by 8t. Louls capital. A. M. Casey, formerly captain of a com- pany in the Second Missouri, knew noth- ing of the failure of the plans; when he reached New Orleans last night. Mr. Evans, who arrived in charge of the ex- pedition, came to the newspaper offices and stated that the men had been employed to work on the railroad. That he was mis- taken is evidenced by the fact that the Guatemalan Northern Railroad is a v- ernment line and that the Honduras Con- sul filed the protest against allowing the men to sall on a Macheca line steamship.

Albert. out of a Bramble mare. McGuigan has six 2-year-olds and they are undoubtedly the best-looking bunch at the track. Every spring McGuigan shows up here with a bunch of 2-year-olds that set everybody to talking and essing, and this year is no exception, although this time opinton among trainers at the track seems more widely divided than usual on the merits of his youngsters. They all admit, however, that they are the best looking lot at the track, as far as looks go. Some well-posted men believe that he has two or three of the best colts he ever owned, while others have their doubts. MeGuigan’s two-year-olds are all great big, racy looking tg that make some of the others in their division look like dogs. They are strong, well-built horses, capable of picking up weight and going a route. He has two colts by imp. Albert and a filly by Pursebearer that are attract- ing especial attention. The Pursebearer filly has shown that she has speed. She fomges through the stretch this morning in :34, and did it in a way that aroused the admiration and envy of all who witnessed the feat, The Albert colt out of the Bram- ble mare is, tf anything, faster than the filly. He breezed throu the stretch in a fraction better than :23, and the way he carries him-«bif indicates that he has good stuff in hia. McGuigan is sweet on this colt, and it is known that he regards him as the best of the bunch. Frank Leigh, a brother of Eugene Leigh, is here with a stable of seven 2-year-olds and five in the older divis‘ton. He has Horseshoe Tobacco, Katie Gibbons, Mad Anthony, Farondale and Whirlaway. All of these bread winners are in first-rate condition and witil be up to a race in time to start at Little Rock. Katie Gibbons is in the derby here and will in all probabil- ity be a starter.

Stanford and Berkeley, the two big col- leges at San Francisco, wanted Joe Corbett, the National League pitcher, to coach their teams this spring. It seemed to both a foregone conclusion that the team which secured Corbett would win the spring series. So they stirred themselves to get him. Berkeley got her bid in first, when Spider Eckhart, Berkeley’s manager, went over to Corbett last Saturday and offered him $250 and expenses. Corbett raised him $0, and the Spider returned to Berkeley to see if the athletic association would be will- ing to give the additional $80. The associa- tion was willing. but in the meantime Stanford’s manager, Loughead, saw Corbett and offered him $500 and expenses. When Eckhart heard of this he took the first train for Stanford, and there com- plained that the Cardinal’s Faculty had in- terfered in college athletics and asked that Stanford release her claim to Corbett. This the Palo Alto lads refused to do, but made the suggestion that both universities do away with professional coaches. But the Californian was not to be beaten In that fashion. ee BUSINESS MEN'S MILL, —_- in that branch of the city government.” Innovator and Harry Thatcher were fore- casted-in this column to run one-two in the 2-year-old feature event of Wednesday's Oakland rogramme.

This provides ‘that no franchises or concessions of any kind whatever shall be granted by the United States or by any authority whatever for which the United States is responsible in the island of Cuba during the occupation there by the United States, and provided further that the pacification of the Teland of Cuba having beer accomplished, the President is hereby authorized to withdraw the military forces of the United States therefrom and to leave the government and control of the island to its people.” Mere is a distinct recognition of the fact that Cuba has been pacified and that the duty of this government under its “Own pledge is discharged. If we remain there any longer it Will not be to “pacify,’’ but for some other purpose. What that purpose is may be guessed from the reference in the Foraker amendment to franchises and concessions. For this government to grant franchises in Cuba to its own citizens ig an act of usurpation without support in law, morals or decency, and that such usurpation is contemplated is clear from this proviso against it. The man who did is the man to be honored and rewarded. BSchiey’s victory at Santiago put him in the class of the men who did. Why complicate his deserved honor with the claims of men who didn’t? = = ™ i HEROES OF PEACE. A railway car loaded with ten tons of explosives was being scorched by the fire which was burning up two connected cars in a Louisville train yard. , Edward Upp, a locomotive engineer, backed his engine up to the powder car, coupled engine and car, and then crept between the burning car and the one loaded with explosives, uncoupled them and ran his engine with the powder car out of danger. "He did this alone, facing almost certain death to save the lives of the firemen and hundreds of spectators who crowded around, unconscious of danger. Edward Upp is one of the heroes of peace. There are many ‘Buch. Modern conditions call for them, and they are not ‘found wanting. We expect heroism on the battlefield. When ‘we find as striking examples of it in the daily walks of life, _our faith in human nature is strengthened. ; . ++ ——____—__—— Wichigan’s Railway Tax Bil]l.—The Atkinson bill, just passed * tm the Michigan House, provides for assessment of railway, express and telegraph property by a State Board of Assessors, Which shall have access to all accounts and statements of the corporations interested, the companies to be assessed at the @verage rate of State, county and municipal taxes throughout the State. The companies are required to make sworn annual] Statements of their possessions and conditions. Should this bill pass the Senate it will certainly become a law, as it is Gov. Pingree’s pet measure. = = ANTI-SENTIMENTAL CLUB. The latest woman's club to compete for public attention is the Non-Sentimental Club organized in Illinois by some well known women. According to the account of this singular organization Printed in the Sunday Post-Dispatch its motto is, “Don’t wear your heart on your sleeve.” The object is to distinguish. be- tween honest, healthy sentiment and mere sentimentality, Which tends to become maudlin and is always artificial and more or less hypocritical. But the habit of sentimentality is not broken by force of a club resolution. > ladies cannot resolve it away. * Men who Geclare they are Peyond flattery are most flattered when told that they hated flatterers. So a sentimentalist is often most Sentimental when she (or he) protests that she is not. The habit can best be broken by strict adherence to common Sense and by not refining upon motives: also by avoiding self pity and by a good understanding of the undoubted fact that one is not very important after all. os os Nothing remains now for the defenders of Secretary Alger but to arraign and impeach the scandalous facts of his mis- management for high treason against the government. — —_ —__ eon. THE HANNA CASE. “ . The United States Senate will not recover any of its old- time good reputation by adopting the majority report in the Hanna bribery case The majority of the committee report that there is no di- Fect evidence of bribery nor any evidence that Senator Hanna Was privy to the acts of his managers, even if they did use Money to procure his election. But the report does not consider the fact that many wit- esses called upon ceclined to testify under advicé of counse] nmittee had no jurisdiction. Nor does it note the > te that Hanna and his representatives, hou: with suPenas, did not condescend to appear and re- — s UIS POST-DISPATCH. evidence was carefully withheld, and because nothing essential | was brought out it recommended that the case be dropped. This is truly remarkable. Will the Senate rest content with such a conclusion? Is personal dishonor no bar to member- ship in a body which is the judge of the qualifications of its own members? Charges of this kind are now pending against three or four Senators, but they do not seem to affect their standing in the most honorable legislative body in the world. Speaker Reed ig a Czar indeed when he can block both the Senate and the House and prevent the passage of so popular @ measure as that providing for the construction of the Nicaragua Canal. What is the power of the President compared with this exhibit of the Speaker’s potency? a - SPAIN’S CRISIS AND THE TREATY. Sagasta’s resignation is believed to foreshadow the rejection of the Paris treaty by the Spanish Cortes, but if this expecta- tion shall prove correct the treaty will not necessarily fail. The Queen Regent is empowered to ratify the treaty and to cede the Philippines. Referring the treaty to the Cortes was merely a bit of political strategy to shift the responsibility from the throne. Refusal by the Cortes to accept the respon- sibility embarrasses the Ministry and forces a ministerial crisis, but it ia not probable that the Government will ulti- mately refuse ratificaton. The action of the Cortes, to some extent, embarrasses the United States Government by withholding formal legal war- rant for exercising all the rights of sovereignty in the Philip. pines. But the terms of the treaty are accomplished facts that cannot be undone by Spain. Spain's dilly-dallying may offer the United States an op- portunity to gracefully get out of a bad bargain. Since Spain hesitates to give us the Philippine Pandora box, we might drop it to great advantage morally, politically and pecuniarily. i Record Breaking Farming in 1898.—A native born American farmer, on a 6000 acre farm in Iowa, made a profit of over $50,000 in 1898 out of hie corn crop. This was on an investment of $258,496.83, including land at $80 an acre and all necessary machinery, buildings and stock. This was a record breaker. and shows what can be done by intell gence, modern methods, and close application to a chosen calling, = - The utility of publicity is again made manifest in the suc- cess Which has followed the war against consumption under- taken by the Sunday Post-Dispatch. The awful ravages of this disease were shown and the remedy suggested. In re- sponse other newspapers joined the crusade and now several public hospitals devoted to care of tuberculosis patients are projected in Boston, New York an:: other cities. ——— TS Speaker Reed has a soothing sirup in the demand for public buildings. A public building may strengthen a Congressman with hig constituency much more than the passage of any canal bill. No one knows better how to safely make himself troublesome than our Veter Clay. 090 Orden The case of Nipling emphasizes the rule that an overcoat put on at the opening of the winter season must not be taken off with a change of weather.during the winter months. The neglect of this rule is quite certain to bring its punishment in a severe illness or in death. ————— Col. Dalton’s figures showing that wheat and corn are grown at a loss on Misrouri farms are startling. According to Col. Dalton’s stattstics, no one has more reason to grumble than the farmer. Such conditions certainly demand consideration in the levying of taxes. > & eo —______~-_—— “Do unto others as you would that they should do unto you,” is as wiae u rule for nations as for individuals. It shotld be especially the rule of a great, free republic, desiring to seta good example to all other peoples. -— — - = | “The only money that has been spent on either side of this question happens to have been spent on the side of anti-ex- pansion,” says the Courier-Jéurnal. What about the $20,000,- 000 for the Philippine insurrection? i ii Senator Foraker thinks it is time to withdraw our troops from Cuba. The-climate will withdraw a good many of them if Uncle Samuel delays the homeward movement. Perhaps Gen. Boynton can prove that the gallant soldfers who died of bad food and neglect deliberately died—with the malicious intent to injure Secretary Alger. The benevolent assimilation of China by the European powers should begin with substantial aid to the 2,000,000 who are starving in Shantung Province. —_——_—______# oo A conspiracy of editors is not sufficient to explain Secretary Alger’s undoing. There must also have been a conspiracy of soldiers and a conspiracy of things. The increase of the River and Harbor bill from $30,000,000 to $153,000,000 by the Senate is a striking instance of the pos- sibilities of legislative expansion. = = " i POST-DISPATCH SNAP SHOTS. Statesman-author Julius Wurzburger may yet be called to the Cabinet. Schiey has really beén a warm seaman ever since he rescued Greely from the Arctic solitudes. yermany wants it understood that she was merely an innocent spectator in the Philippine rabbit drive. “Reading makes a full man,"’ quotes a recent lecturer. doub* a bill of fare has something to do with this condition. No The Filipino has as little comprehension of unpremeditated ex- pansion as of benevolent assimilation: He thinks it all criminal aggression. is The new Senator frcm Montana, Multi-Millionaire Clark, weighs only 1% pounds. The weight of his copper, however, is something enormous, and he is on his metal. When Queen Lil thinks of the pension accorded Queen Rana- Walo of Madagascar ty France, her opinion of the Hawaiian ex- pansion is considerably strengthened. “Every fit of anger makes the complexion several] shades dark- er,”’ says an expert beautifier. This truth may account for the fact that there are so many pretty brunettes. If a woman must drink three quarts of water every day and walk:three miles dally in the open air, in order to have good health, many of the sisters will remain more or less sickly. People who want to be married complain that there are too many rubber-necks al out the St. Louis Court House, and the com- plaint is doubtless a just one. There is too much meddlesome curiosity in matrimon al matters, and it should be suppressed at all times and in all places. Should the police force be enlarged, no doubt some provision will be made for the protection of bash- ful pairs from the Court-house rubber-necks. —__ - - oo. ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS. J. B.

Lolita wishes to be patriotic— hat is what is the matter! oe purposely took a seat just behind the first barrier of the bull ring—not seven feet above the ground where her husband will kill his bull—‘‘so that she can see him better.”’ as she lispe to an admiring Mexi- can fighter, who wishes her to g0 into one boxes. gg Sevillian costume, the silk man- tila exposing just enough of her Spanish eyes oan dimpled chin to make people want to see more, Dona Lolita is by far the most admired woman in the plaza, distract- ing attention even from the beautiful ban- derilla wees os cane Largo” is going h with In the r are a rich Spanish lady up there in the boxes envies the loyalty that has induced the wearing of a passe dress. and many a Spaniard feels his heart grow warm and hts eyes moist as, forgetting the little fig- ure before his eyes, he can see another one, of the old days, in the old country, almost identical; many @& man forgets the fat. richly dressed Mexican wife at his side. and goes back in heart to just such a girl, whether of Andalusia, of Seville or alone in his box the prites of ranges. ot ike ef ane : rhaps a r one eres yh 1g instead of passing igs m him during the y ) ° in Sclona, be would not now be a lone, triste, 15 bankers, ex-bull ¢ man, M, — ry x 7 . , a oe © ey ° e oe + . . : » 7 _ aS 4 i w'thout home, chick or child—only the money. She is trembling from her dainty head down to her tiny, silk-bowed Spanish slip- pers all the time that “E] Largo” is tor- turing the furious, pawing bull with his sharp ‘banderillas. She clasps her hands tightly together, as, finally, tiring of the banderilla work—which, in fact, hag been eomewhat long drawn out, “on account of the matador ‘E! Chatto’s’ sudden sick- ness and faintness’’—the public of the sunny side begin to clamor for “‘E] matador! mate el toro! Ine venga el matador! El mata- dor!’’ The gate swings open at last, and “El Largo” still teases the bull as “‘E) Chatto” moves forward slowly, and bows first to the president and then to the public. In spite of his magnificent silver and violet cos- tume, he looks deathly ill—his face is white and drawn, and under his eyes great black rings show, that extend almost half- way down his face. P But “EB! Chatto” is game, if he is sick —perhaps the presence of his wife inspires him with fresh courage, for he unsheathes his bright, keen sword, nods briefly to ‘“‘El Largo,’ who gets out of the way, smiles once at Lolita, who is, beneath her man- tilla, far whiter than he; then makes a tantalizing movement at the bull. After all, no one can fight a bull as does the Spanish matador. At least, during ‘El Chatto's’’ splendid work of the next seven minutes that is what the people think. All of them are on their feet shrieking, some breathless with delight! Silver dollars and hats and flowers eal down into the ring, but “El Chatto’ has no time to bow his thanks; he ‘s too busy. On her feet, as is everybody else. for that matter, Lolita is watching every motion, her heart beating in great leaps, and so excited and wrought up now that she has forgotten to feel afraid. Bull and matador are just underneath her, and twice her husband has glanced at her significantly: she .s watching with her heart in her eyes. One pass of the sword backward over the shoulder—now, then, Dios, help—a-h-h! For all in a second it happens: the mat- ador, suddenly reeling after a fancy pass at the bull, has cast one agonized look u at his wife and fallen prone en the groun¢ The buli does not see, for the furious im- petus of his last charge has taken him sev- a ot * gavees the matador. ut efore the people have . . that. there is a quick leap and be BE age slight figure is in the rng, her mantilla is cast back, the pink rose has fallen into the dust; her tiny, white hands have caught.up the sword. As the bu} eWwings madly forward she meets him. Ae ag He is an enormous beast, an line even with his shoulder 2 ro rise on tip-toe. She does it. Her face ‘s white and calm as the brute rushes at her lowering his. head. Whe springs forward and upward, the sword sinks out of sight in the bleeding shou'der—no fancy passes for her! And the bul topples over on his knees, the blood gushing out in torrents He is dying—dead! The mantilla ‘s trampled into the dust. the pink rose is now a faded, reddened scrap, but the woman, her hands blood. stained and her face white as death knows nothing about that. On her knees, sobbing like a baby, from overwrought passion and nervousness, she is holding her hus- band’s unconsc'ous head in her trembling arms. As for the populace, they have passed from horror-stricken silence and terror into hyster!cal shouts, screams, applause and even tears. Out comes purses and dollare, and even jewels from the rich ladies present and masses of flowers. Amid shouts of ‘“‘bravo,”’ down it all pours into the ring. As for the great banker, Franquillo, who is 80 ex- cited that he can hardly move—down goes ie footman with a message to “La Espan- la!’ Not waiting to bow or to thank the peo- ple, so overcome -s she with her tremen- dous success, Dona Lolita files from «the ring. It is all she can do to trembiingly thank the bearer of a check from the banker, Franquillo, who has filled it out for $10,000.

Vernie Richards of 9271 N. Twentieth st. Was shot and probably fatally injured at Breese Lake, a few miles from Venice, Wednesday afternoon while fishing. He was in a ekiff and was shot by some one who was concealed in the bushes on the shore. Richards and Gamuel Filbert of 1807 Washington av., each about 17 years old. Went to the lake Wednesday to fish. They hired a skiff and were floating about on the lake when the crack of a rifle was heard. Richards was standing up in the boat. He sank down with a cry of pain. The bullet had lodged in his right hip. Filbert rowed the boat to the wooded Shore. The person who had fired the shot bead disappeared. Richards was not able to walk, Filbert left him lying im the boat and ran to a farmers house for help. The farmer took the wounded boy to the Venice Ferry in ae wegon, and Filbert brought him across the river. An ambulance took him to the North _ Dispensary, and Dr. Randall attended m. The Doctor found that the wound had Probably been inflicted by a 44-caliber bul- let. It had penetrated so far that it could not be removed. The boy was forwarded to the City Hospital. The shooting recalis the tragedy at Long Lake, at the foot of the Illinois Bluff, sev- eral years ago. A fisherman was shot dead @s he was standing in his skiff.

Holmes has made ‘his 17th annual report to the Humane Society, showing the accomplishment of continued. g00d work. In dealing with children the Secretary says that many cases have required days of patient inguiry and investigation, and to all of them he gave such care and at- tention aS Was necessary to properly rem- edy the trouble and care for the child or children. During the year 126 cases were reported at the office, in which 279 children were involved. In cases the parent or par- ents were admonished and four times prose- cutions were entered. Sixty-seven children have been placed in homes, cared for by relatives or deeded to the society, through its influence. Regarding animals, 2280 cases have been attended to and remedied; 82 were reported to the office, the remainder coming under the observance of the officers. There were 8% prosecutions, 72 convicted or pleaded gulity, two bonds forfeited, three discharged and four dismissed. Scattered throughowt the city the society has 2 fountains for the use of animals; and the number that quench their thirst at these monuments of humanity cannot be estimated. The latge fountain on the Bridge Square, presented to this society by Mr, William Barr, is the largest and it {s not an unfrequent sight during the heated term to see 16 animals at one time at it, while others are waiting a chance to get to the water. The anvbulance for the use of disabled animals has frequently been used during the past year. Fifty-one animals have been moved in it, and word has reached the office that several valuable horses have been saved by its timely use. Those desirous of aiding the society's ee work should send their subscriptions, owever emall, to Mr. Joseph ‘Franklin. . It is worthy of mention that during the last three years the officers have not found it mecessary to make a personal application ‘for funds. Don’t fuss and fret when left without 4 cook.

The apparel will be similar in design to the undress uniform of the Navy. The innovation is in ine with Postmaster Fred W. Baumbhoff’s ideas for better uni- formity in the conduct of the postal service. There are nearly 1000 clerks at work daily receiving, distributing and forward- ing St. Louis’ vast yolume of mail mai- ter.

When ‘eahed about it Mr. Baumhoff nt plied that he had thought of his y odin s- tants wearing g certain style of dress, vt had deemed TA advisable to first consult their wishes before making the order. A reporter asked several of the young women in advance of their superior, The invariable answer was ““we object. Rut if any of the men are unwilling to don uniforms they don’t say so. In fact they seem to fancy the idea. The contract for the uniforms has been let to Feehheimer & Co. of Cincinati, O. The coats will cost about $9. ‘] don't think we w'll have trousers,” said Mr. Baumbhof, not for some time. The colors will be gray or blue. this detail being left to the descretion of the various superintendents. Mr. Baumhoff himself will wear @ box-shaped blue ser coat, with brass ttons. It will be decorated with black braid and with epaulets. The collar will bear the initial “U. 8. P.- 0.” for United States Postoffice. The coat will be Hike that of a police captain. Assis- tant Postmaster William Fiewellyn Saun- ders will wear a coat of similar design, eave that it will not have shoulder straps. Private Secretary J. Harry Brocken will dictate letters and perform other duties for uniform ‘at least Louis “We have recently placed the automatic registry system in operation, which records the arriving and leaving time of every em- ploye in the Postoffice..

And it has met with the unanimous approval of the clerks.” FOR A BI-PARTISAN TICKET. Headquarters Formally Opened by In- dependent Citizens.

The engagement lasted three-quarters of an hour and then the insurgents scattered, but as soon as the Tinclad withdrew the insurgents returned and again opened a slow fire across the river.

Prices Have Advanced on All Lines of Laces—6 to Products, and Every Plant Is Pushed to Its Utmost Ca- pacity to Meet Demands. BPP Friday's Specials in Ladies’ Underwear. o NEW YORK, March 2.—In its review of trade conditions, the Iron Age will say to- day:. “The iron and steel markets are boom- ing and seem now entirely out of the con- trol of the sellers. Prices have been jump- ing dollars per ton and the excitement is spreading. As for the first half of the cur- rent year it has cessed to be a question of price and has become a matter of ability to deliver at all. ' “It is not so long since that the majority in the trade pooh-poohed the prediction that there would be a scarcity of pig iron. The fact is admitted now and the only Question is when relief may be expected, That may be brought about, either by the Hlowing in of additional furnaces or by the checking of the export shipments, or by the falling off of the home demand. For the firet half of the current year not a@ single one of these factors, nor all com- bined, will make any impression. Will it come early or iate in the second half? We believe that in this respect the hopes of many will be doomed to disappointment. Tt is true that a number of large new or remodeled plants in the Central West are to fall into line after the first of July and that furnaces now idle are expected to start in soon. It is true that a number of @mall Pastern stack are trying to get ready and the same is true in Virginia and the uth. “But with many enterprises it is not a matter of putting the plant into shape, but of getting raw materials. In the central West, in the East and in Virginia, the ore problem is the troublesome one, al- though relief may come to some through imported ores. In the South it #8 a mat- ter largely of fuel. “The export business, of course, will be ‘Mhecked. The tonnage of all kinds foots ‘wp to about 800,00) to 900,000 tons. For the first aix months and for a part of the sec- ond half much has been contracted for. In “cases even now it has been poss-ble to delay deliveries and thus get room to take on domestic work.

NORTH TEXAS, TOO, MAY SUFFER Strikers Appear Firm, and Declare That They Have Means and Sup- port for the Fight. PERRY, Okla., March 2.—Reports from every town in Oklahoma indicate a coal famine. For many days the largest towns in Oklahoma and Indian Territory and sev- eral Texas towns, have been without coal. This condition is due to the miners’ strike in the Indian Territory. Reports from Indian Territory are that the situation remainge unchanged at South McAlester, but that the men at the Krebs mine ‘will probably join the strikers of the Lehigh and Coal Gate. The visible coal supply in North Texas is reported already short, and the strike, if long continued, is expected to cause ser!i- ous difficulties all over that State. Should another ecdéld spell occur the coal famine would be very serious indeed, The strikers claim to be as firm in their resolves as are the operators and say they can stay out any length of time and will draw all of the new men now being im- ported into the territory into their organiza- tion. They say that they are well equipped for the strike and will win in the long run.

He Is Champion Gymnast, Well Bred, and No One Would Suspect Him of Doing Any Unconven- tional Thing. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, March 2.—Indicted for murder and facing the accusation of de- liberately poisoning two persons, Mrs. Kate Adams and ‘Henry C. Barnet, Roland B. Molineaux will be brought to trial the first week in April for a crime that has had no parallel in New York. Molineaux was arraigned to-day. The court room was packed when Molineaux took a position beside ‘his counsel, Messrs. Weeks and Battle. Mr. Weeks asked that time should be given to the defense before pleading and suggested about a week. District Attorney Gardiner protested, but was overruled by Recorder Goff, who set next Tuesday as the day for pleading. The proceedings in court 0 about six minutes. After a colloquy be- tween Mr. Weeks and Col. Gardiner, re- garding a possible motion to examine into the records of the Grand Jury, Molineaux was led out of the court room. He shook hands with some of his friends in the rear of the court room and appeared to be per- fectly at ease. The statement is made in official quarters that two other persons will be indicted as Molineaux's confederates. Their names, of course, cannot be given now. Notwith- standing the strong evidence against him Molineaux has the moral support and con- fidence of a large majority of h's club- mates. His warm personal friends in the club —probably 16, for Molineaux did not culti- vate intimates—have all along scouted the possibility of hie guilt. Notwithstanding the arrest, these. close friends assert their confidence in Molin- eaux'’s ability to prove his innocence. nly consumed The prisoner in the Tombs offers an op- portunity for study by experts in crimin- ology. arently he is to-day the least concerned man in New York. If guilty, he is the most remarkable prisoner that ever entered the Tombs. ‘Molineaux is a man of singularly pleas- ing address. His manner has all the suav- ity that is naturally associated with French descent. His voice is soft and gen- tle. One cannot think it possible for him to shout. no matter what the provocation. He is about five feet seven inches tall and weighs, in ordinary street attire, between 140 and 150 pounds. Although he is a champion gymnast, Molineaux does not look ruddy or in any way like the typical athlete. He has small bones, although his hands, from much ex- ercise on the horizontal bar, have become broad and strong and covered with rugged muscles. Nevertheless, the hands are white and well kept. Even in gymnasium costume Molineaux does not look the athlete. His arms and legs and body are encased in muscles which, though powerful and flexible, are not rominent. Sym- metry and grace re his chief SS be characterictics. He is round-bod and round-limbed. Molineaux has chestnut brown hair that shows galints of lighter color when the sun shines full upon it. It {s beginning to grow thin at the front, and a tiny bald spot shows at the back of his head. He has a high, broad, smooth forehead, a straight nose, tilted slightly upward; a short upper lip, a broad mouth, Ips neither thick nor thin, a broad, firm, projecting chin with a deep dimple in the middle of it, and a strong oval, thick-boned jaw. The jaw is the dominant feature. Molineux’s eyes are grayish-hazel color. pleasant, smiling eyes, nent. They are set deep under strong brows. The eyelids show fine lateral wrinkles. The strongest impression Moli- neux makes upon one who meets him for the first time is that of agreeableness. It is Ympossible to imagine him saying or doing an ill-bred thing or losing his temper and behaving rashly. He seems so suave, so well balanced, so perfectly master of him- self. Molineux first became noted as a gym- nast while exercising in the Young Men's Christian Association gymnasium in Brooklyn. He attracted so much attention that his friends induced him to become a member of the New York Athletic Club. As a representative of that club ‘he won a horizontal bar championship in 188% from a field of 17 performers. In 1886 and 1887 he did not compete, for he was enjoying life on a ranch in the far West, working hard and riding as hard as any of the cowboys among whom he lived. He returned to New Tork in 1888 and won the champion- ship in that year and in 18898. He was in a class by himself. None of the other amateurs could approach him. He performed feats n+ not only great strength, but wonderful skill and power of balancing. No other amateur in America has ever duplicated his feats, and he was a better, more daring and more graceful performer on the bar than the average professional gymnast. Nothing ever seemed to require an effort on his part. The difficult and daring throws, shoots and somersaults on the double hori- zontal bars which he performed have been excelled by few professionals, and the did them all with the same quiet manner that characterized his ordinary deportment. large and of a They are frank, large and promi- The woman in the case, Blanche Chese- brough Molineux, is one of three sisters.

He Realized That to Accept It Wouid Violate the Law, and That the Sender Had Trampled on the Statutes. Special te the Post-Dispatch. JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., March 2.—When Representative J. H. Christy of Lafayette County read the article in the Post-Dis- patch Tuesday about the pass abuse in the Legislature, he remembered that for more than two months he hase carried in his pocket the evidence that in at least one in- Stance a railroad violated the law which Prohibits it from giving to a member of the Legislature a pass. The evidence which ‘Mr. Christy possesses ig a 1000-mile book which was sent to him by Wm. H. Phelps of the Missouri Pacific Railroad before Christmas, with the letter Which accompanied it. Mr. Christy has never used the book and it is now intact, just as he received it. ‘He has never signed the contract contained in it. He was ehrewd enough to realize that the ticket was valuable evidence in his hands, for his own protection. Mr. Christy had no hesitation in showing the ticket and the letter to the Post-Die- patch correspondent.

MARK HANNA IS AN ORATOR. The Coming Man in the Senate Is From Texas, and Other Short Stories of the National Capital. From a Staff Oorrespondent. clair, House, is a man of some importance in for the first lady of the land. Sinclair has the corps. He obtained his lofty position throughout the succeeding administrations of the material comforts of Presidents. Sinclair was made much of by Mrs. Cleveland and by Mrs. Harrison, and he likes to call attention to his responsible po- sition. McKinley after bein he told a on ha very urgent business and admitted to her sitting room rrowing tale of the rats which cellars, bers that really the Situation was getting serious, “Rough on Rats” and other famil- lar remedies availed not. Now could ‘Madam ’ (such fs the title given Mrs. Mc- Kinley by all the White House employes) suggest anything? The mistress of the White ‘House made a perfectly natural ges- ture of repugnance at hearing this uncanny story and after a moment's reflection she said slowly: to keep such unpleasant things fro my knowledge. I hope héreafter that rou wiil Strive more diligently to earn that egalary. Now you may go.”’ Sinclair since that time is theing con- stantly asked what Mrs. ‘McKinley recom- mended ag a sure cure for killing rats. Hanna as an Orator. Who said ‘Mark ‘Hanna could not make a speech? Let the purveyor of this misin- formation step down and out. A passer-by, dropping in to the Senate gallery yesterday, clated, clearly and distinctly, and seeing the Speaker gesture with the ease and race of a delsarte pupil, would certainly a oe - had the floor. t The naval appropriation ill was under consideration and the Ohio Senator had arigen to explain an amendment which he offered to the Dill. His first was short but lucid. Somethings he said had been challenged by Bacon of Georgia. The amendment in question provided for the appropriation of a considerable sum of money for the pur- chase of some Gathmann guns. Capt. O’Nelll of the Ordnance Bureau of the War Department had written a letter to the Naval Affairs Committee, disapproving of the Gathmann gune. chief, and in go doing put this foot deep into the mire. Hanna arose the second t*ne and in a clear, resonant, melodious voice, began an explanation of his amend- ment. His words were well chosen, appro- priate, his sentences short but crisp, hie periods were all well rounded, his manner was easy and graceful and his articulation perfect. As Senator Jones of Nevada said to the Post the speech: anna said more in one word than many Senators say in five."’ His defense of the Gathmann clear and intricate knowledge of the sub- ect under discussion. There was not a lowhole in his argument, and when he finished his ten minute speech and the amendment was put to a vote there was not an objection to it. Hanna was con- siderably flushed when he concluded, but it was the flugh of earnestness and not of excitement. Several Senators came over to where he was standing and shook his hand in congratulation. “I don’t gay much,” said Hanna, as he er, “but when I talk it is usually about something with which I am familiar.’’ Too Near a Neighbor. There is a heap of trouble on Senator Fairbanks’ mind. He will have as a col- league in the Senate after March 4 a man who lives in his town, same ward, precinct and attends the same church. This fact in itaelf would be unimportant if Gena- life after the expiration of his present term. but inasmuch as he has political ambitions and naturally desires a re-election. he will turned ‘because of his geographical tion. There ja an unwritten law in Indiana which prevents the election of both Sena- tors from the same part of the State. was violated, however, in the case. of ‘Beveridge, but when the time for Mr. South- ern Indiana will insist upon the selection of a Senator from that part of the State ‘However, Mr. Fairbanks has four years to serve, and in the meantime there may be some eolution of this troubles tion. Coming Man From Texas. Senator Horace Chilton of Texas is ing rapidly to the front as one of the Democratic leaders. After March 4. when Gorman and Gray and White and Turpie retire, Chilton, who has already shown marked ability as a leader, will doubtless pound into more prominence than he has heretofore achieved. He is pussesged of one of the ‘best legal minds in the Senate and is aman of wonderful genius and capacity for evolving original ideas. More than once during the past fortnight when things have been somewhat muddled in the Senate (hilton has come forward with suggestions which have carried the party to victory. He was one of the uncompromising oppon- ents of the Administration army bill and ably assisted Senator Gorman in forcing the 1 fe eng oa to surrender their pet scheme for an imperialistic army. Rival for the Hand of a Ken- tucky Woman. Patrohren Fay and Houlihan of the Fourth Police Dietrict found a dangerous- ly wounded negro at Twenty-firet st. and Franklin av., at 3:10 o'clock -Thursday morning. The negro gave the name of William he lived at 1008 Dickinson, and he said N. Eighth st. Dickinson had fallen to the street, Was bieeding profusely and was suf- fering great pain. He was taken to the City Dispensary, where Dr. Voerster said the wound Was serious, and he was sent to the City Hospital. Dickinson told the police that another negro, Alex Smith, who lives near Eleventh an Morgan sts., had shot him a few minutes before he was discovered, at Jef- ferson av. and Wash sts. After receivin the shot he walked to Twenty-first st. and Frankin av., where he fell. He gaid the shooting Was the result of a rivalry that arose hay they both lived in Paducah, Ky.

ANOTHER SMALLPOX. PATIENT. > PANTS Frid ay, each | William Nunley, Colored, Walked In- to the Dispensary Suffering From Variola. Another case of smallpox has been sup- plied to Quarantine Hospital by the barre! house at Eleventh and Morgan sts. William Nunley, a colored boy, walked into the City Dispensary about 9 o'clock Thursday morning. The guard did not happen to be at the door and Nunley was inside before his condition was noticed. Chief Dispensary Physician Jordan had just reached his office a moment before, and handled the case in person. Nunley was suffering mildly from the disease. The negro was sent to Quarantine Hospital at once, entered as a variola patient. Nunley said he had no home. He came from Cairo, IL, a month ago. and has since been living in lodging houses. Dr. Jordan thinks the negro. con- tracted the disease since coming to B8t. Louis, though, he says, it may be ossi- ble the negro its not telling the trut and came to St. Louis from Cairo In the box car with other colored men, who are now in quarantine. All of these men are eX- tremely ill and may not get well. Little Breckenridge Clemens Is reported to be convelescing rapidly. He is the child who was stricken down with the disease at the Hotel Beers a few days after his arrival in St. Louis with his mother and rrandmother. = Health Commissioner Starkloff’s specially aligmented medical staff is still at the work of vaccinating everybody in the tenement and lodging house districts.

THE DEED OF A WOMAN. WASH NATHAN, THE SON, WAS INNOCENT OF THE CRIME. Whe Story of the Deed Brings to Light the Interesting History of Irene McCready, Who Could Have Told AlL Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, March 2.—After three de- (@ades the Nathan murder mystery is | solved, as nearly solved as it ever will be. By the death of an aged woman in rural »} New Hampshire the problem that has ‘puzzled the New York police for 30 years , was made plain, and the smirched memory ; of Washington Nathan, now dead, is ‘cleared of suspicion. _ More than this will never be known or ‘eonjectured. The deed was not the work of a professional criminal, but of a woman; i;@nd the woman has gone where no pro- oess of human law can ever reach her. PART I. The Nathan Murder. The Nathan murder took place on July 28, 1870. ' For 40 years Benjamin Nathan and his brother, H. B. Nathan, had been with the Belmonts, the leading banking firm of the metropolis. On the afternoon of July 23 Mr. Nathan, accompanied by his ‘brother-in-law, J. , Lyons, and Mrs. Lyons, left his country Seat to come to town. The following day ‘wae the anniversary of the death of his mother. He was a devout man and al- Ways spent that day praying in the eyna- goxeue. Early in the evening he left the Jzvons Pesidence in Nineteenth st. to go home. Mechanics and artisans had been at work in the house and a bed was made for him in the reception room, the front room on the second stury. . in the rear room on the same floor, sep- farated by dressing rooms, slept his old housekeeper, Ann Kelly. On the third floor ‘were the chambers of his sons, Washington and Frederic. On the top floor Mrs. Kelly's gon, a man about 3), had a room. The house had been constructed to dead- ‘en the noise from the street. The walls lgwere double and lined with felt. The doors fitted with nicety. The windows were pro- tected with straps and fitted with screens. | A few days before his death Benjamin ‘“Wathan had said he felt happy and secure ‘in his home, it was so well protected and ‘oomfamable. ' Barly in the evening Mr. Nathan asked they had not heard a sound. The thun- derstorm and the heavy, deadened walls may have explained this. Opinions differ as to whether the assailant had rified the banker’s clothes, found the key of the safe. ransacked it and was then discovered and felt compelled to kill the owner of the valuables; or whether Mr. Nathan had been induced to write the check, which, curious- ly enough, was dated a day ahead, and had then demurred at some other demana and a fight had ensued. The eldest son was by many suspected of having committed the murder, or of hay- ing had guilty knowledge of the crime. Circumstantial evidence was piled up against him, but nothing criminal was proved. He went abroad died there abroad, tervals. During one of these visits, in 1879, Wash- ington Nathan was calling upon Miss Alice Harrison, an actress, at her apartments in the Coleman House. A mysterious “Miss Zuland”’ and her maid had arrived the day before and had requested to be assigned to rooms near those occupied by Miss Har- rison. Shortly after Nathan’s arrival “Miss Zu- land’s’’ maid knocked at the door. As it opened she made a quick survey of the premises, apologized for her mistake and w-thdrew. Three minutes later “‘Miss Zuland’’ burst into the room and fired two shots from a revolver at Nathan's head. Miss Harrison ran screaming from the room. “Miss Zu- land”’ fled to her own apartment and Na- than, turning up his coat collar to hide the wound made by one of the bullete, hur- ried to a doctor’s office. The hotel proprietor found ‘‘Miss Zuland’’ tramping up and down the hotel corridors, raging about “Wash” Nathan and hinting at the troublous times of July, 1870. It wae long believed that she was the Clara Dale with whom Nathan had spent most of the evening on the night his father was mur- dered. He admitted at the inquest that he had been in the habit of visiting Clara Dale at lrene McCready's ‘house, and she testified in his behalf, establishing an alibi. Washington had always been a high liver. It was said he had quarreled with ‘his fa- ther about money and ‘was living beyond ‘his mens. The fact that he was the last one to hear his father speak tthat night and the first to discover ‘his body. together with the spec- tacle he presented at the door in bloody garments, combined to throw the gravest suepicion upon Washington Nathan. When he died in 1892 in France, whence he ‘had gone to escape the scandal that fol- lowed the murder, Washington Nathan was poor. ‘He had run through the $75,000 he inherited from ‘his father, $25,000 from his grandfather's estate and $10,000 fronk an aunt, in addition to $5000 per annum from a trust fund established by his mother. Various noted criminals have from time to time pretended to know who were in- volved in the murder, among others George Ellis, a Sing Sing convict; George Forrester. another desperado, and, lastly, Irving, the celebrated bank robber and burglar. But none has ever unraveled the myetery. at once and lived and except for brief in- PART IT. —_-—-— --— Irene McCready.
